Im in my mid 30s and I’m just done, literally zero interest in dating or finding someone to be in a relationship with at all.
I’ve never wanted to have kids so it’s not like I have any metaphorical clocks ticking.
Im just… done
Focusing on myself has been the greatest thing I’ve ever done for myself. My life is complete as it is. I feel the most fulfilled that I’ve ever felt!
My previous relationship completely drained me of anything and everything. But now…Im the fittest I’ve ever been. Skin glowing. Hair thickened back up and healthy. Much much lower stress levels. I look back at pictures and don’t recognise myself!

This is probably most women, because we know that single child free women live longer happier lives. Why would any woman give up her peace and freedom for the sheer misery some men rain down upon them?
Anyway, standard Not All Men, and humans are pair bonders so it’s nice to stay open to this idea (gay straight or whatever) and hopefully find a suitable companion, but it’s so nice to not have this be your focus.
I can very much relate but I’m 24 lol. I feel free
Me too girl
Yup! I decided enough was enough 7 years ago. Should’ve decided sooner, my life would’ve improved sooner. Every single relationship I had made my life worse. Without fail.
I’m 40 and while I’m not saying completely done on them I got burned badly in my last one and am taking time off from dating. I’m focusing on taking care of myself and spending time with friends.
I’m done with relationships but I do have fun going on dates every so often. A little one night romance. Then go back to my solitary life.
40 and tired of it. I went on a few dates with a guy recently and he’s a super nice and interesting person, but I’m over sex at this point in my life. I don’t want to lead him on, and I don’t feel like starting a new sexual relationship so I’m going to end it. I am totally fulfilled by my job, hobbies, body, finances, and I’m childfree by choice. I’m in therapy and loving myself more than ever.. relationships have negative impacts on one if not more of those things, historically. Finding someone interesting enough to date is really difficult so I am probably just going to take a conscious break.
Cheers to being single and happy! Enjoy your peace!
Yep! You sound just like me!
One 19 year relationship from the age of 15 – 34 was enough for me. The last 3.5 years have been an absolute dream! I don’t want to be in a relationship.
No, I think it’d be nice to find someone who complements my life and although my life is fulfilling, intimacy from a romantic relationship is still something that’s important to me.
